Workshop: $20/$17 Students & Seniors.
For Info: (310) 220-5455

Your words are magic. "Angelic Alchemy" is the process of transforming your experience from fear to love. Gently guided by Saint Germain and the angelic realm, we will release the tar-like qualities of fear and cease playing by the rules of time and space. We’ll then entrain ourselves with all of the wisdom, healing, creativity and love that has ever been, getting in synch with your purpose. This process came forward as a download in response to Saint Germain being asked how we could invert lower energy into blissful peace. The harmony and clarity that have emerged from these insights are pervasive and powerful.

WHERE TO PARK NEAR THE BODHI TREE BOOKSTORE

Dear Friends of the Bodhi Tree,
One of the most common problems of life in Los Angeles is finding a parking space. Here’s a guide that we hope will make it easier for you to park and help you avoid getting a parking ticket when visiting the Bodhi Tree Bookstore in West Hollywood. A variety of parking is available: metered spaces, some spaces at particular times in the permit parking areas, Valet parking, parking structures and spaces in front of the Used Book Branch. All this is explained in detail in the "Parking" section on the Bodhi Tree web site in the "Events" section.

Valet Parking: The City of West Hollywood, the Urth Caffé, the Bodhi Tree Bookstore and other local merchants have a community Valet Parking program. The pick-up area is in front of the Bodhi Tree Annex building at 8583 Melrose Avenue. The cost is $5.00 and it is in operation from 10:30 am until 11:00 pm. Consider using Valet Parking the next time you want to visit not only the Bodhi Tree Bookstore but also Jerard’s Peace Gallery next-door, Kitson, Waterworks and Mansour across the street, followed by a visit to Soolip down the street for some beautiful paper. There are many other interesting stores in the area. Before heading home, you can relax with a wonderful "caffé" and good cuisine at Urth or Le Pain Quotidien. Through Valet Parking, you may "forget" about your car for a long time.
How to park for free: The Bodhi Tree Bookstore offers a "help you park" program. We will reimburse or credit the basic Valet fee ($5.00) for a minimum purchase of $15.00.

WHERE YOU CAN NEVER PARK

The side streets north of Melrose: No customer parking is allowed at any time in the area north of Melrose (towards Santa Monica Blvd.), except at a parking meter space.
The side streets south of Melrose-east side: The area south of Melrose is a different permit area with different rules. There is no parking at any time on the east side of the street. Two hour free parking is allowed Monday through Saturday on the west side of the street.

Please don't be discouraged-there's usually enough parking available most of the time in the areas listed above.
